· Stuttgart has been considered for a few years now as THE fastest tournament of the season on the circuit. The balls are very fast, the bounce of the ball is low, we should therefore witness very big battles between the players, regardless of the ranking, the room for maneuver will be very narrow.
· The court can clearly be assimilated to an ice rink, and the sun expected this week in Stuttgart should further accentuate this feeling of speed.
· At the level of the final draw, we will note the return of Nick Kyrgios on grass who will be opposed to Corentin Moutet R1, but also the presence of certain names like Ben Shelton, Taylor Fritz, Alexander Bublik or even Jiri Lehecka.
· The playing conditions of s’Hertogenbosch will be ‘slower’ than those of Stuttgart, with a higher ball bounce as well, which will allow for more rallies from the back of the court. s’Hertogenbosch is also considered one of the slowest grass court tournaments of the season, the adaptation time is generally easier to manage than in Stuttgart, especially after a stint on clay.
· Regarding the draw, we will find players like Gabriel Diallo, Alex De Minaur and Tallon Griekspoor, recent winners on this surface.
